I am interested to the history of the B-17 Flying Fortress since 2000 and doing research since 2017. It's still my hobby beside my full time job. I want to be accurate as possible with the information in my videos. However, if you find any mistakes or have additional information, please correct me and let me know :)

My grandfather was Charles Becker. I have this picture framed. His flight jacket and medals are all displayed at my parent’s house. I so appreciate you making this. I will cherish and share this video a lot.

Hello...I am asking for your help. My great uncle Robert (Bob) E. Sudbury was the right waist gunner on the Holy Makeral. His plane went down on 12/16/43 after delivering a payload to Bremen. They apparently collided with another damaged B17 over Holland and crashed. My grandfather passed without sharing anything he knew with me. Bob's death haughted him because he promised their mom he'd look after him. I wish I could have met this very brave young man. Thank you for all you do for those men.

Makes the 757 look like it was engineered by accountants

Is it any wonder why the B-17 was so beloved by its crews?
